The service is average, and there is no Chinese support. I showed my U.S. driver's license but was told I had to use my Chinese driver's license, which I didn't understand. The vehicle was in poor condition, with a low mileage but constant strange noises, and a warning light remained on, making me uneasy. There was no service in the car pick-up area, and it took me a long time to find the car, which was inconvenient. I previously rented from Avis, and their service was better than Alamo's in many aspects. Today, I was also charged a $40 fine, of which $13 was Alamo's service fee.

This is a great car rental company. I'll keep using Alamo on my next trip to the US this year. (^_^)

The whole process of collecting the car is very smooth and the counter staff is able to explain very clearly on the terms and conditions. The staff will ask if you need the insurance coverage from them but she did not try to hard sell to me. My recommendation is not to subscribe to any insurance from the online car rental portal you are using but to purchase directly at the Alamo counter. This approach will give you a worry free trip as you are able to call Alamo for direct assistance if required instead of calling the insurance agency direct while overseas.

Very clear and easy use of the website. However, it will be great to specify the differences in using your own insurance coverage as compared to those provided by the car rental company. This will reduce a lot of unhappiness between customers and the car rental companies.

great alamo

Excellent quick and friendly service

All went good
